Art, Design & Architecture Education and Events

The House is developing an ongoing programme of Art, Design and Architecture events, workshops, term time courses, summer schools and masterclasses.

We currently offer regular children's classes - ARThouse on Saturday mornings and Drawing & Painting courses for adults on Sunday afternoons in our purpose built art studio during the Autumn, Winter and Spring Terms. Enrolment takes place in September, January and April   -  click here for booking details.

We also present specialist events and masterclasses as part of our gallery education programme, which are led by the professional artists/designers that are currently exhibiting work in the Art Lovers cafe gallery.

Forthcoming events include the Spirit of Place, Landscape Watercolour Masterclass with our exhibiting artist Carolyn Burchell on Saturday 26 May 2012 and the Fine Art Printmaking Masterclass Weekend which responds to Philip Reeves' Transitions exhibition on Saturday 7 and Sunday 8 July 2012 

ARCHIVE

The House launched its Arts Education and Events programme with the ARTscape festival in October 2011.  This featured artists talks by Patricia Cain (Drawing on Riverside/The Riveted Eye) and Adrian Wiszniewski; a Landscape Painting in Oils masterclass with artist, Alexandra Gardner and a Moku Hanga Japanese Woodblock Printing weekend masterclass with the artist Elspeth Lamb.

The children's programme included lightHOUSE - a lantern making workshop and PHOTOforest where we teamed up with Glasgow Life's Big Inspiration Festival and the photographic artist Kenny Bean to encourage children to take a closer look at the botanical beauty of Bellahouston Park.
